It is so nice when world poker champions meet you on the PokerStars home page; they are Chris Moneymaker, Greg Raymer, Joe Hachem, Peter Eastgate and Joe Cada. They are part of Team PokerStars, which is really amazing. The homepage is nice and is not overcrowded and it features the latest poker news, PokerStars features and etc. PokerStars features are impressive and catch everyone's eye. PokerStars is the Largest online poker room and the download is a mere 6 minutes and it’s done. The popup at the end of installation is a bit annoying, but there are people who are interested in PokerStars’ news, so it’s a necessary evil. There is a Mexican simplicity in the design, which I really like, but that's a software formula. On the whole, PokerStars looks good. I am giving 9 out of 10.

Talking about the PokerStars features, they have it listed on their homepage. It is: 1. The World's largest poker site - definitely yes, there is no other larger online poker room 2.

Fully licensed and regulated - not sure how to check this out ? 5. Best software and game selection - well, word "best" could be discussed, but it is unique and it is good, I agree with that. 6.
